知识梳理
1. My family lived in a tiny house.
tiny/'ta ni/adj.微小的；极小的
She keeps a tiny cat.她养着一只小猫。
little 常指数量、程度、年龄等方面的小 有感彩
small 常指面积、体积等方面的小 客观陈述，无感彩
tiny 指无法与其他事物相比较的异乎寻常的小，常作“微小的；极小的”讲 强调特别小
2. …looking after us was more than a full-time job.
…照料我们比做一份全职工作还要辛苦.
这句话的主语是动名词短语looking after us。单个v-ing形式短语在句中作主语时, 谓语动词要用单数。句中more than表示“不只是，多于”。例如：
He is more than a coach. He is a friend.
他不只是教练, 更是朋友。
more than与数词连用，意思是“多于，大于，超过”。例如：
I have known him for more than twenty years.
我认识他已超过二十年了。
more than与形容词连用，表示“非常、十分”。例如：
They were more than happy to see us come back from the holiday.
看到我们度假归来，他们异常高兴。
3. …what’s more, because I was a girl.
而且，我是个女孩。
what’s more表示递进，“然而/还有…… ”的意思，独立使用，既可以放句首，也可以放句中，what’s more后面加逗号。
你应该记住它, 更重要的是, 应该正确理解它。
You should remember it, and what’s more,
you should get it right.
4…and she goes to work even after getting married. 而且她结婚后还可以去工作。
marry 娶；嫁；结婚；和...结婚
get married 强调的是短暂性动作，不能和表示一段时间的状语连用; 表示结婚已有一段时间用be married。

marry sb.
marry A to B
get married to sb.
be married to sb.

2.Read the passage and take notes on what Mrs Li says about the points in Activity 1.
Life now and then
By Betty King
Mrs Li is over seventy years old. She has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.
What was your life like in the past
My family lived in a tiny house. There were no electric lights, only candles. My father was a postman, and he often worked twelve hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer heat. My mum was a farm girl before she met my father.
She was a kind and loving mother. She didn’t go out to work. There were five children in my family, and looking after us was more than a full-time job.
I remember the family meals. The food was simple. We could only eat meat once or twice a year. I wasn’t sent to school because
my family couldn’t afford it, and what’s more, because I was a girl.
Families have got smaller than they were in the past. Today most people only have one child!The role of women has changed too. My daughter is really lucky. She has a good education, and she goes to work even after getting married. I’m happy to see she’s busy working every day, but sometimes I feel lonely because she can’t come to see me often.
How has life changed
Transport and travel are easier today. When I was young, I went everywhere on foot or sometimes by bike. Now you can take the bus
everywhere, and there’s also the underground.And you young people can take a plane to anywhere in the world. The only thing I don’t like, though, is that there’s so much more traffic. It’s so difficult to cross the road.
Of course, we didn’t have television when I was a child. I really enjoy watching television today. There’re so many good programmes,like the Beijing Opera and old films. But some of the shows are too noisy for me.
Generally speaking, I think life is better today. We eat better and we live longer.

Most people only have one child today.
● For each of the points you choose, write about an advantage and/or a disadvantage. Use the words however, but, although or used to where appropriate.

have one child today. As a result, families have
more money to spend on their child. However,
an only child may feel lonely…

5. Present your passage to the class.
Changes in my hometown
In the past, my hometown was very small. People lived in a poor life. The houses were old and small. The pollution was very serious, and there was rubbish everywhere. Travelling wasn’t easy, so few visitors came here.
Now great changes have taken place. People are living a better life. Their houses are large and bright. Many people have their own cars. The mountains are greener, the rivers are clearer and the sky is bluer. Every year, thousands of people from all over the world visit here.
I’m sure my hometown will become better and better.
